About Me.
|
Tiny bio of a Full life (and I'm not even close to done!)Life is a dance between the sacred and the raucous. One moment I'm a part of the most brilliant sunset, feeling the divine flowing through me along with all the colors of the sky. Then I realize I’m sitting in a patch of poison ivy. It's a dance of divinity, of magic, of miracles, of sensory deliciousness. And mixed in are messes, painful missteps, loss. Death and Birth. Fast and Slow, inhale and exhale. Storms and Rainbows. In my experience, I have to honor both in order to be real, whole, and fully alive. To feel and remember my soul and the bigger picture. My soul longs for me to learn, grow, expand, come home to myself. I have to create space for the storms, learn from the sting of the lightning, in order to fully be present for the celebrations life offers daily. The more I share the ugly, the vulnerable, step into the scary -the closer I am to my truth, light, and beauty. I am here to create spaces for deep connection to ourselves, each other, nature, the mystery of it all. I do this through community events and classes, private or group ceremonies and healing sessions. It all involves nature, ceremony, getting messy, and feeling alive.
You might find me leading kids on adventures through ravines and creeks at Wild Nature Project; or perhaps leading playground building or trainings around the world with Play360; bringing Indiana University students to hidden ecologies to gather and cook up delicious wild edibles, or working with women at Woman Within, or leading teen girls Circles at local schools. Wherever I am, I intend to experience all this magnificent earth has to offer, hopefully making some good trouble along the way and laughing a whole lot. I'm a community builder, crafter, storyteller, healer, dreamer, facilitator, celebrant and ceremonialist, lover of cultures, people, and the earth. I like the trickster, and the darkness. I love to laugh and have been known to scare owls from their nests with my cackle. |
